How is this fair? Why should people who happen through no fault of their own to be outside California or the US have no free health care? There is a whole,continent in Africa that could use great free health care. Why stop at only foreigners who are pretty close to california?

It should not. And a new entitlement for people who pay little or no taxes. At some point a California state or federal judge Proposition will rule Proposition 13 unconstitutional and we will see a massive increases in property taxes to pay for all the new social spending that will be occurring.

“if the goal of the federal health care law is to provide coverage to the uninsured, then immigration status should be irrelevant.”

Why stop there? If the goal is to destroy the United States, then any law might as well be irrelevant. Heck, let’s give them free food as well, because as the left is fond of saying about healthcare, sooner or later everybody needs food. So it should be free.

(Liberals are like Slinkies, good for nothing, but you smile as you push them down the stairs.)

California has been finished for a long time now, trust me, born and raised here in SoCal and its gotten worse as time goes by..the only thing good about LA are the sports teams, and my Lakers, wait, I take that back, we straight up SUCK right now but at one time we were good

There is no hope for the future of CA. It will become a permanent dem and Latino majority state that will devolve into third world status.

I have said it before here. The Dems are inviting their own "fundamental transformation" by crap like this. Amnesty would indeed assure democrat victories all across the country but would give the foreign invaders a seat at the national table of politics.

Electoral victories by Dems will be displaced by electoral victories of South-of-the-Border (SOB) democrats. And it will be their (SOB's) party now. Bye-bye Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson - no love lost there. And corruption and vicious politics will be elevated so high that it would give Nancy Pelosi vertigo. Then the word will get out to all the lands that the USA is prime for looting. Amnesty II, III and IV will follow. A primeval race to the bottom.

When your health benefits are cut, and when your grandmom and grandpop can’t get that knee transplant or heart surgery they WORKED FOR AND PAID FOR, when your PERSONAL premiums go UP, those hidden taxes kick in, and your OWN benefits are cut, THIS IS WHY ITS BEING DONE. To provide medical coverage for illegal invaders, unemployed pot heads and welfare cheats.

After all - they CAN vote (or will in a short time) - for Democrats and RINOs.

Sounds like a great idea for California .... damn, if you’re going to give them driver’s licenses, food stamps, housing assistance, daycare, free schooling and college, etc. then the least you could do would be to supply them with medical care, optical care, dental care, free contraceptives, etc. Hey, what’s a few billion more ... remember the words of the great leader from behind ... “The rich just need to give a little bit more, just a little bit more, ....”
